1 answer:

3 0

<span>Three strategies are intensive distribution, exclusive distribution, and selective distribution. Intensive distribution involves making sure that products are available when consumers want them. Exclusive distribution is where only a limited number of dealers have the right to distribute the company's products. Selective distribution is where very few intermediaries are used to carry a company's products. They sell their products through dealer networks and select large retailers.</span>

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer: Please refer to Explanation

Explanation:

DR Cash $ 50,000

CR Common Stock $23,450

CR Paid in Capital in Excess of Par $26,550

(To record issuance of common stock)

Common Stock = 3,350 shares * $7

= $23,450

Paid in Capital in Excess of Stock = 50,000 - 23,450

= $26,550

DR Cash $ 50,000

CR Common Stock $23,450

CR Paid in Capital in Excess of Stated Value $26,550

(To record issuance of common stock)

Common Stock = 3,350 shares * $7

= $23,450

Paid in Capital in Excess of Stated Value = 50,000 - 23,450

= $26,550

DR Cash $50,000

CR Common Stock $50,000

(To record Issuance of Stock)

d) DR Organizational Expense $ 50,000

CR Common Stock $23,450

CR Paid in Capital in Excess of Par $26,550

(To record payment of Organization Expense with stock)

Common Stock = 3,350 shares * $7

= $23,450

Paid in Capital in Excess of Par = 50,000 - 23,450

= $26,550

e) DR Land $ 50,000

CR Common Stock $23,450

CR Paid in Capital in Excess of Par $26,550

(To record issuance of common stock in Exchange of land)

Common Stock = 3,350 shares * $7

= $23,450

Paid in Capital in Excess of Par = 50,000 - 23,450

= $26,550

Bradford Company derived the following cost relationship from a regression analysis of its monthly manufacturing overhead cost:

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Bradford's estimated variable manufacturing overhead cost is $127,200

Explanation:

The cost function=$83,000+$12M

where M stands for machine hours required to produce the expected output in the month under review.

Each one-six unit case of Bradford's single product requires two machine hours,hence 5,300 cases would require 10,600 hours(5,300*2hrs).

Total estimated variable manufacturing overhead=cost per machine hour*expected number of machine hours

cost per machine hour is $12 as seen in the cost function

estimated variable manufacturing overhead=$12*10,600=$127,200

Answer and Explanation:

Ferris Company

1. Average cost periodic

Dollars $48,000+$ 105,000

= $153,000

Units $11,000+$6,000

= $17,000

153,000 / 17,000 = $9.00 Cost per unit

Cost of Goods Sold:

9,000 units × $9.00= $81,000

Ending Inventory:

8,000 units × $9.00= $72,000

2. Average cost perpetual Jan 5th sales

Dollars 48,000

Units 6000

48,000 / 6,000 = $8.00 Cost per unit

Cost of goods Sold:

3,000 units × $8.00= $24,000

Ending Inventory:

3,000 units × $8.00= $24,000

3. Average cost perpetual Jan 12th sales

Dollars 69,000

Units 8000

69,000 / 8,000 = $8.625 Cost per unit

Cost of Goods Sold:

2,000 units × $8.625

= $17,250

Ending Inventory:

6,000 units × $8.625

= $51,750

4. Average cost perpetual Jan 20th sales

Dollars 60,000+51,750

=111,750

Units 6000+6000

=12,000

111,750 / 12,000 = $9.3125 Cost per unit

Cost of Goods Sold:4,000 units ×$9.3125= $37,250

Ending Inventory:8,000 units × $9.3125= $74,500

Summary of Average Cost Perpetual

Cost of Goods Sold:

Jan 5 3,000 units= $24,000

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

Explicit costs are actual costs which Yakov must make while implicit costs are opposite of explicit costs, Implicit costs are opportunity costs.

Grouping them, we have the following;

•The wages and utility bills that Yakov pays. => Explicit costs

•The salary Yakov could earn if he worked as a paralegal.=>Implicit Costs

•The wholesale cost for the pianos that Yakov pays the manufacturer. => Explicit costs

•The rental income Yakov could receive if he chose to rent out his showroom =>Implicit Costs

2) Yakov's accounting and economic profit of his piano business.

Profit($)

Acct Profit.......... Economic Profit

$14,000. .............. -$9,000 (loss)

•Yakov's accounting profit will be his revenue - explicit costs.

Therefore accounting profit=

$704,000 - ($404,000 - $286,000) = $14,000

• Yakov's economic profit will be (accounting profit - (rent + forgone salary)

Therefore, accounting profit =

$14,000 - ($3,000+$20,000) = -$9,000
